Feature: Stainless steel type 304 construction delivers durable, corrosion-resistant performance for challenging environments. The finish provides consistent appearance and reduced contamination risk in humid spaces while withstanding humidity and washdowns. This material choice translates into lower maintenance costs and longer service life, helping assets stay online longer. For engineers, it means fewer compatibility concerns with other stainless components. Feature: Bottom brace compatibility with B42 channel. This alignment reduces field adjustments, minimizes misalignment, and shortens installation time for crews. Application: Works with common B42-channeled installations in electrical rooms, control panels, and data-center support structures. Rugged bottom-brace integration also helps with stable load distribution across the bracket. Feature: Braced single bracket design. Increased torsional rigidity reduces wobble and maintains alignment under vibration, improving long-term reliability. Application: Ideal for equipment mounting in compact rack enclosures and industrial control panels where rigidity matters. Feature: Precise dimensions and weight. Ensures predictable fit in restricted spaces and accurate load distribution across multiple assemblies. Application: 24 in length, 8.75 in height, and 1.62 in width with a 6.35 lb weight, enabling reliable planning for rack layouts. Crucial benefit: the compact footprint helps maximize cabinet real estate while preserving structural integrity. Feature: Documentation and catalog support. This enables quick procurement and engineering referencing with accessible catalogs and datasheets. Application: Eaton Strut Fittings Catalog Section and the B494-24SS4 specification sheet for easy on-site reference; UPC 781011865665 supports seamless inventory management.

FAQs

The B494-24SS4 is designed as a braced single bracket that works with B42 channel bottoms, providing secure, straightforward alignment on standard strut channel systems. This compatibility reduces field adjustments and speeds up installation for racks, enclosures, and panel mounts. Engineers can rely on consistent hole spacing, predictable fit, and reduced rework across multiple projects.
The bracket measures 24 in in length, 8.75 in in height, and 1.62 in in width, with a weight of 6.35 lb. These precise dimensions simplify space planning, allow accurate load distribution calculations, and ensure the bracket does not interfere with adjacent components in compact rack or enclosure configurations.
Yes. The stainless steel type 304 finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for data centers, manufacturing floors, and controlled environments. Its compatibility with B42 channel and a braced single design delivers reliable mounting in dense installations, reducing maintenance needs and extending the life of critical infrastructure like racks, enclosures, and control cabinets.
According to the provided specifications, this model lists Certifications as Not Applicable. For projects with strict regulatory requirements, verify local codes and consult Eaton literature or a product specialist to confirm any client-specific compliance needs or alternative configurations with certified options.
The combination of stainless steel 304 finish, bottom brace compatibility, and rigid braced design reduces corrosion-related maintenance and loosening of fittings over time. This translates into fewer replacement cycles, lower labor costs during maintenance, and improved uptime for critical electrical and automation systems across data centers and manufacturing environments.
